We raise the claim to be a scientific knowledge base what makes correct citing and referncing for the provided content one of the most urgent issues in AWF-Wiki.

General citation style

As general style for citations we prefer you to follow the below example
Barrett, D.J. 2008. Mediawiki. Wikipedia and Beyond. O'Reilly Media, Sebastopol. 358 p.
In case of Journal articles please follow this example
Author1, H.K., Author2, J.G., Author3, k. 2008. Building up a Forest Science Knowledge Base with Mediawiki. Journal of IT in Science, 12(3), 121-134.


To implement citations we use the wiki-extension Cite that enshures a clean and organised style of references.

References are placed inbetween a <ref> </ref> - tag in the text (right at the position of the citation). This sentence is an example for a citation (Author1 et al. 2008 [1]), you can see the small indicator linking to the footnote at the end of this section. The basic concept of the <ref> tag is that it inserts the text enclosed by the ref tags as a footnote in a designated section, which you indicate with the placeholder tag <references /> like this:

==References==
<references/>

If you forget to include <references /> at the end of the article, none of the footnotes will appear.
